Keep your technicians informed where they work best by setting up instant notifications in Slack and MS Teams. This integration allows you to send customizable alerts for tickets, tasks, and other key events directly to your team, helping to speed up response times and protect your SLAs. Notifications are managed through a new 'Instant Messaging' channel in the Notification Center.

Configuring Notification Events

The following tabs allow you to customize alerts for your technicians:

  • System Notifications: This tab covers system-level alerts. You can enable instant messages for events like 'Side conversation reply' and 'Technician Mention' to ensure technicians never miss important communications.

  • Ticket Notifications: Manage all ticket-related alerts here. Enable instant messaging for events such as 'New Ticket Created', 'Ticket assigned to Technician', or 'SLA Response Escalation' to keep your team on top of their ticket queue.

  • Task Notifications: Configure alerts for task-related events. You can send instant notifications when a 'Task is assigned to a Technician' or when a 'Task is Overdue' to improve task management and accountability.

  • Client Notifications: This tab handles notifications related to client interactions that require a technician's attention, such as when a 'Requester Replied' to a ticket.


By integrating SuperOps with Slack or MS Teams, you can deliver real-time notifications directly into your technicians' daily workflow. This ensures that critical updates are seen and acted upon promptly, improving overall efficiency and service quality.
